Page Prefetcher for Opera similar to Firefox

This is great news for the users of Opera Browser who wanted a feature similar to how Mozilla Firefox prefetches web pages to make browsing faster. Guys working on UserJS.org have released a script, which makes Opera function in a similar way as Firefox to pre-fetch pages.

Description of Page prefetcher Script:
This script prefetches other web pages linked to the current, in a similar way as a Gecko browser. It looks for link tags in the page header with rel next, prev or prefetch. The pages are prefetched in a hidden iframe. The script removes all objects and embeds from the prefetched page to prevent this content from interfering with the current page. It also prevents scripts from running so the prefetched page won’t pop up.

What is UserJS?
A new powerful feature in Opera is User JavaScript (UserJS). UserJS works similarly to Mozilla’s Greasemonkey and allows users to run their own code at various times in the processing of a page.
